Camping Las Cabañas

The remote Teruel Province is the least populated in Spain (its eponymous city is the only provincial capital in peninsular Spain not to have a direct train line to Madrid, fact fans) – which makes it a splendid setting for make-pretend games starring your own adventurous self as a valiant cowboy or cowlady. Stride off into the site surrounds on the nearby hiking trails, or go the whole hog and dangle around the via ferrata climbing routes from Huesa del Común, half an hour's drive to the north. You'll also need to set off for a lengthy explore of famed Albarracín, the ancient town lauded by many as the most beaut in the entire country, as it looks like it's been pretty much unchanged since medieval times. If you desire to dig into the dinosaur history of the region, the splendid Galve Paleontológico Museo or Galve Palaeontology Museum is about 25 minutes' drive away, covering critters like Aragosaurus, Galveosaurus and Gideonmantellia that roamed these parts 150 to 200 million years ago. Dino fans will also want to take the several routes of the Parque Paleontológico de Galve to see dinosaur replicas and real-scale dig reconstructions; marvel at the bones of the huge sauropod dinosaur at Dinópolis Legendark, and spend as much time as possible at spectacular Dinópolis Teruel, the main park of the region with one of the biggest – and rarest – collection of dinosaurs remains in the world.
